    Oakley's are VERY price fixed. No one offers deals on them because if caught... they are not Oakley dealers any longer.

    If you are a police/fire/millitary you can get them with the DHS discount, a pal of mine is a fireman and gets his that way. Only available to DHS verified users in black I think he said, but he gets them for about 30% off if I remember correctly.

    I am not Homeland Security, so I get mine at the local shopping mall... Sunglass Hut.

    Another option would be to go to one your LEO/Fireman pals and ask them to get them for you, but this violates the DHS/Oakley agreement and stands to get your pal in trouble. My pal would not even consider this type of thing so I never considered asking.

    By the way, I wear the Half Jackets with the polerized lenses. Best Oakleys I have ever owned.... Love them!

    Check eBay for M Frames as the mil surplus guys occasionally get new pairs.

    That's where I got mine with 2 lenses and hard case for about $80, but it was at least a year ago.

    After breaking my M-Frames a year or so ago I picked up a pair of the Wiley-X PT-1s. I have not liked any Wiley-X product I put on my face, so these were starting out on the wrong foot. As it turned out, I really like them. They do not have the lens variety of the Oakley line, but they fit my needs. They are low, comfortable, and don't make you look like you can't be trusted with a fork. I have used them in all kinds of environments and equipment and they performed just as well as my M-Frames.

    I like them enough to be buying another pair so I can have a second set already setup with a different lens color to eliminate the need to swap lenses unless they are damaged.

    F2S,

    Have you wrote Oakley or sent in your broken M-Frames? 9 times out of 10, Oakley will replace them for you.

    In a very few cases Oakley will accept disabled veterans for the US Standard Issue program and then you get the applicable discounts. I'm not sure of your current or past profession but there are different avenues to take to reach the same objective. If you fit in to this category PM me and I can point you in the right direction

    I use Bolle warrant glasses. I have two sets of lenses, clear and dark grey tinted. Quick and easy to change the lenses. Excellent fit and clarity. Retail is $160.00 but many places online for half that (like sunglassgiant).
